Chapter 372 They are coming
Returned to the old house with Master Ming and Lin Qingqing.
Lin Qingqing looked around but returned to Su Jiuyue with little success.
shrugged.
"Xuan Ge'er and the children are not at home. I haven't seen Xuan Ge'er for so long. I don't know if this heartless little guy will forget me."
Lin Qingqing curled her lips.
I found a stone bench and sat down comfortably.
Master Ming looked at the small courtyard which looked somewhat dilapidated and paced in it.
The yard was cleaned up very well and everything was neatly arranged.
There is a pomegranate tree, and under the tree there is a set of tea sets and a chess set.
Looking at the unfinished chess game, Master Ming was slightly surprised.
You can tell a person by watching his chess game. The person who left this chess game must be a knowledgeable and powerful person!
The figure of Su Qingshan immediately appeared in Master Ming's mind.
The two overlapped, and Master Ming curled his lips.
It seems like his style of playing chess.
"Who are you? Yue'er! Qingqing!"
A woman carrying a wooden basin came around from the backyard and saw Master Ming first.
Just as he was about to ask about their identities, he turned around and saw Su Jiuyue and Lin Qingqing.
Surprised out loud.
Su Jiuyue and Lin Qingqing smiled sweetly at the same time and called out, "Auntie!"
Zhou smiled happily, put down the wooden basin and walked quickly to Su Jiuyue's side.
He pulled Su Jiuyue and looked her up and down.
"Hey! I heard from your mother that you will be busy in the deserted mountains for a while. How is it going?"
"You guys must be tired, take a break, I'll make dinner, we'll have crayfish tonight!"
The present situation of our family is all thanks to Yue'er.
Seeing her tired look, Zhou couldn't help but feel distressed and pulled her to sit down.
Just happened to meet Master Ming again.
Master Ming performed the salute as a junior.
"Aunt, I'm Miss Su's friend, you can just call me Ming. Sorry for bothering me."
Master Ming spoke frankly and introduced himself.
Zhou was originally a bit reserved, but after collecting crayfish for so long and interacting with more people, he has become much more reserved.
Listening to Master Ming's self-introduction, he also spoke in a very confident and generous manner.
"Since you are Yue'er's friend, why are you being so polite?"
"Please sit down for a while. We have some mung bean soup at home. I'll serve it to you and you can eat in a while."
Su Jiuyue was reluctant to see the rest of the family, so she grabbed Zhou.
He looked around and wondered aloud.
"Aunt, where is my mother? Where is my father? Why aren't my uncle and younger uncle at home?"
"And grandpa, why aren't they here?"
Zhou sighed.
"Your mother was not feeling well. She took some medicine and lay down."
"The others went to the headman's house to discuss something."
Lin Qingqing tilted her head, not understanding.
"Are the whole family going? What's going on that requires such a big fuss?"
Master Ming pondered.
"I'm afraid they are discussing the water problem in the village."
Su Jiuyue looked at Zhou, and it was obvious that she shared the same idea as Master Ming.
Zhou sighed slightly and nodded.
"Water supply is tight now. The village head said that water must be strictly controlled and called all villagers to discuss how to distribute it."
What the village head did is a good idea.
Su Jiuyue nodded and said nothing more.
He stood up and walked towards Li's room.
Her mother didn't look well just now, and she was a little worried.
After hearing what her aunt said, she became even more worried.
Lin Qingqing followed in.
Their noise woke up Li who was lying on the bed.
Li's face was a little pale, and sweat was oozing from the corners of his forehead.
It doesn't look like it's in very good condition.
Looking at Su Jiuyue and Lin Qingqing, he forced a loving smile.
"Are you done?"
Su Jiuyue walked forward with concern and held Li's hand.
Feeling the coldness in her palm, Su Jiuyue frowned.
"Why is it so serious?"
It was an extremely hot day, but Li's hands were as cold as if they had just been taken out of an ice cellar.
"I'll go get Doctor Li!"
Su Jiuyue let go of Li and hurriedly got up. Doctor Li was not far from their home.
It only takes half a cup of tea to get there.
My mother is really something. She didn’t even bother asking someone to check on her when she was feeling so uncomfortable.
"Hey! Yue'er!"
Li grabbed Su Jiuyue.
"It's okay, Yue'er, I just have a weak constitution. I asked Doctor Li to prescribe some medicine when I came here."
Li spoke weakly, and she had no strength to hold Su Jiuyue's hand.
Afraid that Su Jiuyue would have made a wasted trip, he forced a pale smile and comforted her.
"Don't worry, it's just an old illness. I'll be fine after a good night's sleep. Let me rest for a while and don't call me for dinner."
"If I don't get better tomorrow, I'll go with you to see Doctor Li, that's all."
Li saw that Su Jiuyue's little face was almost wrinkled like a bitter gourd.
Added another sentence.
Su Jiuyue then reluctantly let go.
I confirmed again and again that Li was really fine, after Li's repeated and patient assurances.
Only then did I promise not to trouble Doctor Li.
"But if you are still like this tomorrow, you must go to the county town with me!"
Su Jiuyue warned seriously.
Li smiled weakly and nodded slightly.
Lin Qingqing saw that Li was very sad, so she pulled Su Jiuyue.
"Yueyue, Aunt Li is not feeling well. Let's let her have a good rest and don't disturb her."
Su Jiuyue felt sorry for Li, so she tucked the quilt in for her and went out with Lin Qingqing.
Master Ming heard it clearly outside and came forward to show his concern.
"Boss Su, is your mother okay? I have to go to the county town for something. Would you like me to ask Dr. Li to come over and see her?"
Su Jiuyue was worried, and when she heard that Master Ming was willing to help, she hurriedly stood up to thank him.
Sighed.
"My mother is suffering from a weak constitution, an old illness that has never been cured. I asked Dr. Li to examine her, but he could only prescribe some prescriptions for warming and conditioning her."
"I had thought that I would wait until Fenghua was stable and take good care of my mother, but I never thought that her illness would come on so violently."
"Mr. Ming, I won't be polite to you. In this case, I'll trouble you to ask Divine Doctor Li to come over."
Su Jiuyue supported herself again.
He looked at the sun and said again.
"It's sunny now, I'm afraid it's not easy to go out. If you're not in a hurry, Mr. Ming, why don't you go after dinner?"
Master Ming covered his forehead with a folding fan and looked up at the sun in the sky.
It seemed as if it wanted to burn a hole through the earth.
nodded.
"I just want to report the ice-making method to the county magistrate, so that he can have an additional method to provide disaster relief."
"Forget it, let's go later. I'm afraid I'll be dried out before we even get to the county town, haha."
Master Ming chuckled and teased.
Zhou came out with a tray and waved to everyone with a smile.
"Come on, have some iced green bean soup to cool off. I'll go wash the shrimp first."
Zhou brought the mung bean soup to the stone table under the pomegranate tree, put it down and left. Su Jiuyue called Lin Qingqing and Master Ming over.
After drinking the mung bean soup, the heat was really relieved.
Seeing Lin Qingqing telling Master Ming endlessly about the interesting stories of Xinghua Village, Su Jiuyue got up and went back to her room.
As soon as she entered the room, Su Jiuyue's face darkened.
As a top agent, she is extremely vigilant.
All her things seem to be placed randomly, but they all contain mysteries.
With just a quick glance, she discovered that her room had been ransacked.
And it was turned over very thoroughly!
What are these people looking for?
……
Li closed her eyes and listened to the noise outside until she heard them walking away.
Then he opened his eyes and forced himself to sit up.
He stroked his belly with his hand, looking extremely ugly.
"They are coming..."
Murmuring softly, Li sat cross-legged and moved his hands in the air.
As her hands moved, an invisible energy condensed around her.
Li's face became paler and paler, and his hands were covering his dantian.
The surrounding true energy also disappeared into her dantian as she moved.
Li was almost completely exhausted and fell limply on the bed.
It took a long while before I had the strength to raise my left hand and place it on the vein in my right hand.
Inject a stream of true energy to explore.
Li didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the restlessness in his body subsided.
I lay in bed, unable to calm down for a long time.
Why does it move suddenly?
Didn't I suppress it by using that method at that time?
Could it be that after all these years, they finally noticed it?
The village is being targeted by someone. Is it me?
Li stared blankly at the window curtain, her eyes gradually becoming fierce...
Su Jiuyue was completely unaware of what was happening on Li's side.
With a rather unhappy look on his face, he picked up some remaining golden powder on the "Seven Swords" which he had not yet finished writing.
His frown deepened.
Upon closer smell, the gold powder has a very strange medicinal smell.
But she knew very little about Chinese medicine and had no idea what it was.
Just roughly verified that this thing is not poisonous.
"Who left this? Why?"
Su Jiuyue sat on the stool, staring at the gold powder in a trance...
Far away in the Python Mountain, there was a group of people wearing green-faced fang masks and red and black uniforms.
They were sitting together drinking wine and eating roasted rabbit.
"Dry!"
Tuoba Xiong raised his wine gourd and shouted with great heroism.
Everyone raised their wine jugs.
Everyone looked as if they were sure of victory.
One of the subordinates tore off a rabbit's front leg and happily bit into a large piece of rabbit meat!
"Damn it! After searching for so long, I'm finally going to complete the mission!"
The other subordinate took a sip of wine and agreed unhappily.
"If you have this idea, why didn't you send someone to deliver it to us earlier?"
"That's right. We have been looking for this rebel for such a long time. It is common for them to be exposed to the wind and sun. Why don't we take out this good thing sooner?"
The other man also complained while biting rabbit meat to vent his anger.
Seeing that they were full of resentment, Tuoba Xiong threw the wine gourd away and spoke sternly.
"You little bastards! Are you rebelling? Who are you blaming? Your Majesty? Huh?"
Tuoba Xiong has always been cruel and ruthless.
He is quite prestigious in Nansi.
As soon as he got angry, his men fell silent and dared not even breathe.
The person who was leading the complaint put down the rabbit leg and knelt down in front of Tuoba Xiong.
"Your Excellency, I have spoken out of turn."
Others also admitted their mistakes.
Tuoba Xiong glanced at them and his tone became colder.
"In the Guardian Division, all you have to do is obey orders. I don't want this kind of thing to happen again."
Tuoba Xiong had a cold and imposing manner, and everyone bowed respectfully.
"Here."
Tuoba Xiong then waved his hand and asked everyone to continue drinking and having fun.
At the same time, he took a sip of the fine wine he brought from the Bafang Tavern, and his tone softened a little.
"Don't complain, it's not that Your Majesty doesn't care about us."
"Your Majesty also got a strange man not long ago. It is said that he is a remnant of the ancient Miao Kingdom and is proficient in Gu magic."
"I heard from Your Excellency that he was investigating the traitors, so he developed this Spring Insomnia that can awaken the child Gu from the mother Gu."
"Your Majesty sent someone to deliver Chun Busian as soon as he got it. Why are you still dissatisfied?"
After hearing Tuoba Xiong's explanation, everyone stopped thinking about it.
They all shook their heads.
Tuoba Xiong took another sip with satisfaction.
"Well, since Chun Bumian has already spread all over the village, after eating this meal, you all need to keep a close eye on him!"
"Once the sub-gut attacks, the effect is immediate, and the excruciating pain is unbearable for ordinary people."
"Even if Beili Ke'er is different from ordinary people, she will not be completely unharmed."
"In the past few days, who has suddenly fallen ill and whose family has hired a doctor? Check it out for me!"
Tuoba Xiong's eyes were cold.
Bei Li Ke'er, it's so easy for me to find her!
Even if you have great ability and plant this spring that never sleeps, can you really bear it?
Once you suppress it with your internal force, the mother insect will be able to find you!
Tuoba Xiong stroked a bamboo tube at his waist and smiled evilly...
……
Su Jiuyue put the things in the room back in place and cleaned up the gold powder on the desk.
He clapped his hands and went to the kitchen to help Zhou.
Zhou hurriedly drove the people out.
"You kid! You're always restless. I can do it by myself. Go and have a conversation with Qingqing."
"The kitchen is hot and dirty, what are you doing here?"
Zhou pushed Su Jiuyue out angrily.
This child is already very tired from worrying about the livelihood of the whole family, so why should she be required to do something as trivial as cooking!
Silly boy……
Su Jiuyue knew that Zhou was concerned about her and smiled.
"Aunt, I'm not tired. It will be faster if someone helps. We've been busy all day and we're all hungry."
Zhou waved his hand.
"Oh, I have to eat soon. I'm almost done."
Seeing Zhou's tough attitude, Su Jiuyue had to change her words.
"My mother is not feeling well. She can't eat this heavy oil and salt."
"I'm making some medicinal food for my mother. You can't chase me away, right?"
When Zhou heard her mention this, she thought of how weak Li looked when she returned home.
She couldn't even stand without holding onto the door frame, so I had to help her into the house to rest.
I had only seen her like that when she was brought home by my second brother.
Later, he took good care of himself, and although he was always weak, he was never this scary.
Judging from her appearance, she really can't eat this.
Zhou had no choice but to open the kitchen door, and Su Jiuyue slipped in.
Although he was said to be cooking medicinal food, he actually helped Zhou do a lot of work.
As the dishes came out of the pot one by one, the Su family members also came back.
When Su Quanzhong heard that Li was not feeling well, he returned to his room without even having time to drink water.
Looking at the person on the bed with a face as pale as a transparent white, my heart trembled.
He thought of the first time he saw her, she looked like this.
At that time, he just felt that he had encountered a dead person, so he turned around and tried to run.
She used her last breath and flicked him with a stone at hand.
He was able to rescue her.
No, that would be even worse. She would have dozens of scars of varying sizes on her body.
When he returned to the village, he wrapped her tightly in clothes, for fear that those gossipers would see her and cause trouble.
Su Quanzhong stood there blankly, not daring to take a step forward.
"Ke... Ke'er?"
For fear that his voice would disturb her, Su Quanzhong only dared to call her softly.
It seemed that he sensed Su Quanzhong's fear.
Li slowly opened his eyes.
She smiled softly at Su Quanzhong.
"I'm fine, don't worry, it's just..."
Thinking of that possibility, Li's face darkened and there was a bit more sadness in her eyes when she looked at Su Quanzhong.
"what happened?"
Su Quanzhong sat down beside the bed and held Li's hand.
"Ke'er, on the day we get married I promised to live and die with you, to stick together through thick and thin. I know you are extraordinary, so don't hide anything from me."
Li felt the warmth in her hand, and her worry remained unchanged.
"They're coming."
